In the streets of Emlocke...Tom is about to pick up the leg he is currently holding.
Well, that was easy. Suspiciously easy. He hardly had to do anything at all, actually. Now to find something dense.
[Will roll: 4+1]
You intersections can still go screw yourselves, by the way.
[Search roll: 3]
Anyhow, there are rocks around here. They're in walls and stuff. And the walls might be a bit dense as well as a result. The cobblestones look dense, too. They'd have to be. They're cobblestones, after all. And you might say that Tom himself is pretty dense. In relation to the air, of course. Not in any other obvious way.
In a literally bloody basement...Mark's cave-tree instincts activate, causing him to look for a rock!
[Rock roll: 1]
Zero rocks around! Not a very rocky place, this basement. In fact, there is nothing at all except for the corpses, and they're a bit icky, so Mark will just hold off on chucking them for now. Since his cave-tree instincts have failed him, he goes for the next best thing - his fighting instinct. And that old thing is currently telling him to charge. So he does!
[Mark agility roll: 4+1]
This time, he does not tumble down the stairs! He remains standing at the top! Aha! Your evil plan has been foiled, mage!
[Dude magic roll: 2+1]
Nothing seems to happen that Mark can see. Then again, that's what he thought the first time as well. Hm.
In a square full of melting people...Yorinnsud realizes that pH negative forces are at work here, and those just happen to be the exact sort of forces she
does not want to deal with today! It is time to make a tactical advance directly away from the area!
She seems to be rather successful. At least, it doesn't look like anything is following her.
[Perception roll: ?]
Although it still burns a bit.
Actually, it burns quite a lot! It is definitely a very unpleasant sensation, oh yes!
If you are accepting people for the wait-list still... Also a PTW.
Name: Carter Morton
Gender: Male
Archetype: Zombie
Biography: Carter was an average sort, nothing really exceptional in his life. He was always average in most things he did, never going above and beyond, but never doing terribly. Work was average, relationships was average, health was average... Until he died, that is. He died in a fire caused by his own accidental doing, trying to brew up some tea.
Sheet accepted! And the waitlist is always open.
((I read all this thread, and this game is amazing. Congratiulations for having created a new and complex world, but hilarious at the same time.
If you don't mind accepting new characters for the final chapter, I would really enjoy to be in this game.))
Character sheet:
Name:Sigmund GrimDrake
Gender:Male
Archetype: Vampire
Biography: a couple hundred years ago, Sigmund worked as a boring post officer in a small town. One night, when he was doing the final paperwork, a recently converted and clumsy vampire entered his office looking for an easy prey. Altough Sigmund could not help being bitten, he managed to stab the novice vampire in the heart with a letter opener. He kept his new foul condition in secret for many days, but a local baron discovered his true identity. Trying to prevent his execution, Sigmund offered the Baron, and his family, his eternal servitude. The Baron accepted, and used Sigmund's knowledge about the people in the town (mainly acquired by opening people's mail) to blackmail other nobles and important persons. With an everlasting assistant, the Baron's family slowly grew in power, rising his position among the kingdom. Sigmund was first used as a spy, but soon gained experience an become a counselor. The family, thanks to his help, reached the highest positions in the kingdom, and even had possibilities to reach the throne. But then, as the family was planning the murder of the king, a revolution of dancing cane wielders ended with the monarchy in that kingdom, throwing the family's expectations of royal power to the garbage. Sigmund was blamed by not being able to predict this event, and was exiled. Before leaving, he grabed a cloack and a hood with the insignia, and went outside, looking for a person who was worthy of his services.
Also accepted. And Chapter 5 probably won't be the last one. I plan to wrap this up in the next two chapters, maybe three, though the path of the "story" has yet to be decided.
